Handling Unique Moving & Shipping Situations For Senior Move Managers in Southwest Florida
Craters & Freighters Southwest Florida is a proud Industry Partner of the National Association of Senior Move Managers. We help Senior Move Managers move and ship their clients’ special possessions. We are different from parcel shipping and pack-and-ship stores because we handle valuable, fragile, heavy, and oversized items. Craters & Freighters Southwest Florida offers expert, single-source moving, packaging, crating, and shipping services to ensure your client’s belongings arrive in perfect condition.
We’ve attended NASMM’s annual convention and have heard directly from Senior Move Managers about their ongoing need for a provider that can protect and move irreplaceable items for their clients. Craters & Freighters Southwest Florida has 30 years of experience in providing unmatched specialty moving and shipping services to senior move managers and their clients.

Small Moves
Whether your client has one item or a room full of special pieces needing to be moved, we are experts in unconventional and small moves, and we don’t require minimums like other moving companies.
Insurance
Several different types of insurance are available including full coverage and loss-only coverage from the time of pickup to final destination delivery.
Careful Pickup and Transportation
We pick up items at your client’s home using our trucks. We have specially equipped air-ride trucks and lift gates for safe transport back to our crating center. White-glove pickup is available for pieces that are particularly ornamental, fragile, and vulnerable to fingerprints, dust, and dirt.
Worldwide Shipping
We ship to just about anywhere around the world! Whether your client’s family heirloom is moving across town, across the country, or around the globe, we handle all the details! We have over two decades of domestic and international shipping experience.
As part of our single-source responsibility, we take care of the paperwork, shipment scheduling, and tracking to keep you informed about when your item will be delivered.
Delivering to Multiple Destinations
We understand that when a senior downsizes, their most treasured possessions are typically passed on to children and grandchildren residing in different places. Craters & Freighters Southwest Florida makes shipping to multiple destinations worry-free for the whole family. Please ask about our white-glove delivery services for piece(s) that require extra special attention.
When your senior clients have a difficult moving situation that requires extra help from a packaging, crating, and shipping specialist, you know where to turn: Craters & Freighters Southwest Florida!
The Right Materials for the Job
Packaging
Unique items require extra attention. From the moment items are picked up to the time they are delivered, they are protected using the latest packaging technologies. Each piece is custom cushioned based on its specific needs. China, porcelain figures, and glass for example, are individually wrapped with bubble and foam to reduce the risk of breakage.
Wood Crates
Custom-made wood crates offer the highest level of protection to safeguard chandeliers, grandfather clocks, and large paintings from potential moving damages. We’ve shipped hundreds of the most fragile and valuable assets around the world using our expertly crafted crates.
Durable Corrugated Boxes
An item’s value, fragility, weight, and size determine the type of shipping container we use. In some cases, a custom-made corrugated box may be a safe and economical option.
